| Abstract: | An enumeration was carried out in 1989 to assess the effectsof fencing and ground treatment 11 years previously on survivaland growth of naturally disseminated Scots pine seedlings inthe native pinewood at Glen Tanar, Aberdeenshire. Results showeda significant difference between unfenced and fenced plots onpine seedling density and height in 1989. Initial effects ofseedbed treatment on Scots pine seedling density, 2 years afterthe experiment began had largely disappeared by 1989. If removalof ground cover is used to enhance pine seed germination, theexposed seedlings may need to be protected from browsing byfencing. Received 19 March 1990. |
